THE MOUNO-BUILDERS.

Commonly Accepted Theories Concerning
This Ancient and Interesting People.
This ancient and unknown people
left remains of settled life, and of
certain degree of civilization, in the
valleys of the Mississippi and Its tribu-
taries; but we have no authentic name
for them either as a nation or Il race.
The name ..Mound-Builders" has been
suggested by an important class OF
their works. These mounds were con-
structed with intelligence and great
labor. The great mound 1t Grave
Greek. w. Va, is seventy feet high and
one thousand feet in circumference 1T
the base; but generally the mounds
range from six to thirty feet in height.
Combinations of the square and
circle are common in these ancient
works. and the figures are always per-
feet. Careful study of what is shown
in the many reports of these ancient
remains seem plainly To authorize the
conclusion that the Mound Builders
entered the country at the south. and
began their settlements near the Gulf.
Here they must have been very numer-
GUS, while their works at every point
on the line of their distribution, north,
east and west, indicate a much less
numerous border population. Remains
of their works have been traced through
a great extent of country. They are
found in West Virginia, and are spread
through Michigan, Wisconsin and Iowa
to Nebraska. No other united people
previous to our time can be supposed
to have occupied so large an extent of
territory in this part of North America.
II can be seen. without long study of
their works, that the MOund-Builders
had a certain degree of. civilization
which raised them far above the coudi-
ton of savages.
No savage tribe found here by Euro
peans could have undertaken such con-
structions as those of the Mound-Build-
ers. 1t is abundantly evident that
There were large towns at such places
as Newark, Circleville and Marietta, in
Ohio. Relics of art have been dug
! from some of the mounds, consisting Of
a variety of ornaments and implements
made Of copper. silver, obsidian. por-
phyry and greensboro. finely wrought
There are axes, single and double.

FANCY AND IDEAL.
The Wide and Frequently Misunderstood
Difference Between the Two.

The Wide and Frequently Misunderstood
Difference Between the Two.
Having a fancy is one thing. Per-
ceiving an ideal is quite another thing.
To fancy that one. of whom we know
but little, is faultless. or that he is
above all ordinary planes of conduct
and thought and feeling, is to deceive
ourselves. and is to prepare the way
for bitter disappointment when the
truth in the case shall fairly be known.
But TO recognize in another the very
highest standards of purpose and en-
deavor of which we have any idea, as
purely human standards, is to be in
structed and inspired in the direction
of those standards; and no disclosure
of that persons failure TO attain to his
own evident standards will lower the
ideal which he represents to us in pre-
senting those ideals. As applied to
those toward whom we are attracted, a
fancy is what we think another to be-
an ideal is what we see that another
wants to be, and would have us to be.
The fancy'in such case is unreal; bnt
the ideal is the realest thing in the
world. Where the unreal fancy de-
ceives, the actual ideal inspires. Yet
there are those who think that all their
fancies are ideals; and who finally
cease to aspire toward an ideal, be-
cause a fancy has so many times disap-
pointed them.-S. S. Times

THE POPE'S INCOME.
Three Separate Sources from which tine
Enormous Papal Revenue IL Derived. .

Three Separate Sources from which the
Enormous Papal Revenue IL Derived.
A foreign diplomati>t accredited to
Rome gives the following account OF
The present Pope's income and what he
iocs with il. The Pontifical revenue IL
derived from three separate sources.
The first is the interest of an enormous
sum left by Pope Plus IN. In :he Papal
treasury. which interest produces some
s6OO.OO0. The capital of this Is IN
vested i'm English Government funds.
Contrary TO what some persons might
imagine. Leo XIII. Is a great specu-
lator and subscrihes To all the Italian
loans. When the latter rise he sells
out and invests the profits in English
consols. To the revenue left by PIus
IX. must he added sum almost equal
in amount furnished by the Peter :
Pence Fund. which, however. has fallen
off of late years. This constitutes the
ordinary budget of. the Holy See as
distinguished from the extraordinary
budget. The latter i derived from Il
third source and i supplied by the re-
ceiptS of the Apostolic Chancellery.

ordinary budget. 1t amounts To an
average of $4,000 per annm. and
serves To make up the private purse of
the Sovereign Pontitf, and on which
he relies TO exercise his generosity.
IL will be observed that the pri-
vate budget of the Pope is thus
derived. in q great measure. from
the satisfaction of human vanity. The
ordinary budget of the Holy See. which,
as stated above, amounts tn Sl,2OO,OU
per annum. is distributed by the major

Cause the Death of one Person and
the Wounding OF a Dozen Others.
HAvRE DE GRACE, June 21-About
o'clock this evening the south-bound ex-
press train from philadelphia collided with
the north-bound Congressional express, on
the Philadelphia, Wilmington and Baltimore
road. The accident was due to the fact
that the Congressional express was behind
time and passed the signal tower at a high
rate OF speed. The signals were all right,
but the engineer says his brakes refused to
work. He reversed the engine, but too late
to prevent a collision. The accident
occurred about 100 yards from
the bridge, where the single track crossing
the bridge switches off into the bridge
forming "Y.n The fast express struck
the baggage car of the southbound train
just as it crossed the switch below the depot
and crashed into the parlor car behind over
turning and completely demoshing two Of
them. No one ON the northbound train was
hurt. but the southbound train of six cars
was very full of passengers and nearly all
of them were more or less injured. Alex
ander Gantrom, of Washington, D.
c., was instantly killed. He
was in the rear car and was crushed
between two seats, the escaping steam from
the engine scalding him to death. Among
the wounded were T. A. Bland, of
Washington, head scalded; A. Brice of
New York, head and arm cut; B. N. Baker,
Baltimore, left leg broken; Rev. j. P. Pend
hara, Minneapolis, Mimi, shoulder blade
broken and arm fractured: j. NJ. Wharton,
Baltimore, skull fractured; J. H. McCor-
mick, Brooklyn, ~ Y, badly scalded; A.
l.. Wood, Camden, n j., seriously hurt
about the head; Rev Hobart Smith, Balti-
more, leg and hand badly cut. There are
many others whose names could not be as
certained who left as soon as possible
WERE THE VETERANS INJURED?
A number of the Confederate veterans
from Richmond were on the South-bound
train which collided with the Congressional
express at Havre de Grace, and some of
them are said to have been injured, but
nothing could be learned about them, as
they were hurried off to the South.
